1. Of the 22 (the site plan submitted by AAA shows only 20 lots) single
family homes proposed for Blue Ridge, it appears that none of the
homes will be affordable to low income (less than or equal to 50%
AMFI) or moderate income (less than or equal to 80% AMFI) buyers.
AAA Home Builder shows only 80% AMFI and 140% AMFI in their
proposal and expresses a desire to focus on 140% AMFI buyers.
2. AAA Home Builder was notified, on March 16, 2016 (tens days after the
NOFA application deadline), by the City that AAAs $50,000 bid for the
property at 3844 Blue Ridge was the highest bid received.
3. On March 30, 2016, AAA Home Builder submitted its application to the
City for $971,130 in support, twenty four days after the NOFA
application deadline. The Citys NOFA states, Applications submitted
late will not be accepted.
4. AAA Home Builder shows the Land (Acquisition) Cost in its project
budget as $300,000, but the Citys March 16, 2016 letter indicates AAA
is only paying $50,000 for the land.
5. The proposed timeline for development is not feasible. AAA Home
Builder states, we can complete the houses in a quicker fashion on
the Blue Ridge portion of the site. Firstly, construction of any homes
cannot start until the subdivision plat is approved by the City. Platting
creates the legal description for each of the lots, and it is not merely a
paperwork process. Before an application for plat approval can be
accepted by the City, all (or a very substantial portion) of the land
development must be completed. The City cannot approve a
subdivision plat until the roads, curb and gutter, sidewalks, sanitary
sewer, storm sewer, water, electric, telephone, cable tv, etc. are
physically constructed, inspected, and approved (by the City). Until this
platting process is completed, no lender will close on a construction
loan for any of the houses. Therefore, with about 2-3 weeks for final
engineering, 2-3 weeks for the City to issue Land Disturbance Permits
and Land Development Permits, followed by 2-3 months of land
